Our 2025 Thanksgiving message

This Thanksgiving we want to say thank you to everyone who has supported and contributed to our work over the years. It is impossible to do transformational work without the support of countless others who share the vision of a healthier world and we are grateful to have such an incredible, far-reaching community.

First and foremost, we want to thank our researchers who have laid the groundwork in AI and health and have tirelessly set the bar higher in the field. In spite of the countless obstacles, some of which are inherent to the field, your determination and expertise have formed the lighthouse that guides and gives meaning to this work.

Thank you to our affiliates and collaborators who have uplifted our work and guided us through unfamiliar terrain, beyond the trappings of academia, ensuring that our research can be used for the benefit of the lives of many rather than a few. Where many see challenges in bringing research into the real world, you see opportunity and hope.

Last but certainly not least, we want to thank Community Jameel and MIT for creating the supportive environment necessary for innovative ideas to percolate and thrive. Without your combined efforts, the MIT Jameel Clinic would quite literally not exist.

We are grateful to have embarked on this journey with all of you and we wish you a Happy Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

The MIT Jameel Clinic team
